Ways to stay awake?

shadowhound · 08-24-2002, 01:11 PM

Ok I Shadowhound have taken up a challenge that i cannot stay awake for 87 straight hours, for no reason other to prove i can (all the guys out there know what i am talking about, all women think i am a wanker now).

So far stayed awake 45 hours, need another 42... Need advice on how to stay awake. Am already having caffine and sugar rushes when down to desperate. Hot and cold showers have done good. Having a younger brother around the house has finally proved to be a good thing.

Please do not bother telling me how stupid this is. I knew it was stupid when i started and know i can feel why it is stupid.

Hahaha, just keep yourself busy and keep up the coffee =)Don't do anything where you're sitting down, you'll fall asleep! hahaha good luck! =)

Good for you, beat that sleepiness! I often find that when I'm doing something that really involves me and I enjoy, I lose track of time very easily. Many's the time I've not slept one night because of a game or a person talking to me whose company I enjoy...know what I mean? Basically, find something to do! How are you proving that you can stay awake all that time though? are there people there? If so, argue with them, lol.

Tickle the roof of your mouth with your tounge, if you get really tired. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Bristowe - Such as sitting at the computer like i am know?

Mojo - I reckon one look at my face they will be able to tell how long i have gone to sleep. It is not really about proving it to them now i am doing it to know that i can do it.

Jerome - Hey that is pretty good. Will make much use of it. Or even better, get someone else to tickle the roof of your mouth with their tongue.

If you are needing to stay awake for a little it longer, I find holding my breath for as long as possible will get the adreniline flowing.

LOL! Contact some friends with a babe and ask to babysit it!

About the coffe, only two cups or there will be no effect...

Go outside and take a short walk.
Put some headphones on and blast some of your favorite music.

Never tried staying up that long, I'm not sure if anything will work, but good luck.

Try Shaveing your Pubic hair with a cut throat razor.
